I'm so glad Oklahoma is back to normal. After a two-week deep freeze, the ground is thawed and the temperature is rising. I can go back to living my normal life instead of huddling under blankets and wearing gloves inside at my desk. It's wonderful being above freezing, and something I always took for granted...… Continue reading Roasted Cauliflower & Tahini Salad

Hummus Ranch Veggie Wrap
The air is brisk. The salt trucks are driving up and down my street. The heater is working overdrive right now. I half-considered not unraveling myself out of my bedroom blankets this morning. Winter is here and it sucks. I haven't been outside in days. I haven't seen the sun in days. The temperature hasn't… Continue reading Hummus Ranch Veggie Wrap
Mushroom Bourguignon
Hello y'all! It's a beautiful day here in Oklahoma. The temperature will reach 60 degrees before the sun goes down, it's bright and sunny, and the birds are chirping. I understand most of the Eastern United States is looking at a completely different scenario right now. A lot of people are buried under feet of… Continue reading Mushroom Bourguignon
7-Layer Veggie Dip
The hardest thing to curb when you're on a diet is the afternoon snack cravings. You might be at work and those vending machines start calling your name. If you're work from home, that lingering back of potato chips on top of your fridge might start beckoning you with its silent whisper. Heck, sometimes you… Continue reading 7-Layer Veggie Dip
Taco Lentil Soup
We had a great deal of snow fall this past weekend. Oklahoma is starting to look like most northern states this winter instead of what it usually looks like: a dry an barren wasteland. I froze my tush off and sat under my bird feeder to try an snag a shot of our resident cardinal… Continue reading Taco Lentil Soup
Mother Earth Bowl
Sometimes you really just want something nourishing to eat for dinner. Not just nourishing for the body, but for the soul. That's how I felt last weekend when I went to meal prep for the week. I needed something delicious, filling, and healthy. Something like what I had gotten at the opening of Flower Child… Continue reading Mother Earth Bowl
Black Bean Omelette
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but it's one that I usually take for granted. I've never really been a big breakfast person. 'Give me lunch or give me death!' was my motto as a kid. Now, I'm really starting to embrace breakfast culture. I'm diving into the whacky world of overnight… Continue reading Black Bean Omelette
Classic Fried Green Tomatoes
I'm so happy the woman who lived in this house before me knew what she was doing in the garden. We moved into a fully functional, mature garden with tons of tomato plants and a producing apple tree. There's no way I could've grown those from scratch. I've got a black thumb when it comes… Continue reading Classic Fried Green Tomatoes
Extra Mushroom Alfredo
Well howdy, y'all. I've officially traded in an apartment in the city for a homestead in the country on 1.5 acres of land. Nearly a month ago, Rob and I bought our first home outside of Guthrie, Oklahoma. It's everything I could've dreamed. We've got land, gardens, peace, and quiet...not to mention an apple tree… Continue reading Extra Mushroom Alfredo
Grilled Portobello Sandwiches with Roasted Red Pepper Mayo
I've been having a hard time keeping fresh produce in my house. Either it gets eaten up in a jiffy, or it goes bad before I can get around to using it. I don't know if it's just a poor produce selection at the store, or if maybe my fridge is too hot or too… Continue reading Grilled Portobello Sandwiches with Roasted Red Pepper Mayo
